[@joagargo01]

Hey Doug, I found this on the internet: The prototype SS39006 was used for the US version development and received the interconnected fuel tanks, with a twin tank single filler. The single filler system was developed to overcome the problem that blighted most other EB110 owners, as their cars were fitted with the standard twin tank, twin filler system. This system was set up as 2 individual systems, each supplying fuel to one bank of the V12 engine. In simple terms, it meant that if you ran one tank dry of fuel, the car would only run on 6 cyl, even though you may have had a full tank on the other side. Therefore, Bugatti developed with this linked system, which eradicates this issue and this prototype was manufactured with this new system. So, the right hand fuel filler and its flap were removed, and the retractable plate was replaced by a Naca air intake integrated in the right side wall. Rear side markers were positionned on the side of the rear bumper.

Also, the gearbox is not mounted as a separate piece behind the engine like in most rear-mid engine cars. Instead it is integrated into the side of the engine crankcase, the engine and gearbox is really one single package. That is also how they get drive to the front wheels, using concentric axles in the gearbox they can have power outputs both at the back and the front.

In terms of engineering it was the most advanced sports car around in 1991 in Europe, and also the first production car to have a carbon fiber chassis if I remember correctly.

However, it was not the first sports car with the gearbox integrated into the engine block, even the Ferrari Testarossa was like that.

Ultra rare version of an ultra rare car. There were only 137 made by Bugatti, and that one was actually one of the early prototype/development models that were then prepped and sold (the fan switch and glass behind the doors gives it away). The thing that ultimately killed it off was the economic crashes in the 90's. Bugatti launched it in 1991, just as the UK and Europe were plagued by stock market turmoil. Unlike Ferrari, Jaguar and Lamborghini companies like Bugatti had no loyal customer base, nor cheaper product to fall back on, so were always doomed to fail.

Dauer is certainly most famous for having won in Le Mans in 1994 with a Porsche 962 by infamously exploiting a loophole in the regulations by converting a full fledged racecar into a street legal version in order to be allowed to convert it back again into essentially the original racecar.

The “Poltrona Frau” logo was a real luxury touch. That leather upholstery brand was very famous in Italy at the time. Also Lancia Thema and many others offered the “Poltrona Frau” option for their seats, and it was really an exclusive and top luxury touch. Leather sofas and armchairs by PF costed several thousands $$$ and only a few super rich people could afford them. That’s why if your car had those seats you wanted people to know.

Missed one of the cars other party tricks too. In the segment regarding the wing lifting at ignition on, if you watch closely, the panels that say 110EB at what would be the B pillar open up to drive air into the engine bay. They move inwards to create a duct. You can see this happening in the video of the wing raising. The vents on the rear of the car are to allow this air flowing in from the side ducts to exit out the back.
